STOVE ATTACH M ENT.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 284,017, dated August 28, 1883.

Application filed May 26, 1883.

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that we, ZEBULON HUNT and EDWIN HUNT, both citizens of the United States of America, residing at Hudson, in the county of Columbia and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stove Attachments, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.

This invention relates to an improvement in that class of stove attachments designed to be placed over the stove-pipe collar to utilize the large portion of heat that passes up the chimney; and the invention consists in the peculiar construction, arrangement, and combination of parts, hereinafter more fully described and claimed.

Figure 1 in the accompanying drawings represents a plan View of the attachment; Fig. 2, a front view thereof; Fig. 3, a section through the line 00 in Fig. 1.

A represents the base of the attachment, provided with flaring walls a, rising therefrom on all sides, preferably cast in one piece with the base, and having a hole, b, which fits over the pipe-collar on the stove. In one side is a hole, through which is passed one end of the rod 0 of the damper D. The base is provided with standards a, forming bearings for the damper-rod and a support for the top plate, E. This plate has preferably three holes, 6, which should be provided with suitable covers, and also a collar, f, adapted to receive the stove-pipe. 0n the back and both ends is shown an upwardly and outwardly flaring margin or flange, g, to keep articles from falling off or being shoved off accidentally. The front edge of the top plate is turned downward to facilitate the sliding of pots, saucepans, 8m, off of the attachment onto the stove below, and there is a rib at h, which serves the double purpose of strengthening the top and as a stop for the damper when in its raised position.

ened to the stove and held in the desired positi on without the necessity of any other support.

The location of one of the holes immediately over the pipe-collar in the stove will be found to be particularly useful, as the heated products of combustion as they pass upward through said collar will strike directly upon any pot or vessel set over or in said hole.

The damper will also be found a very effect ive adjunct to the attachment, as by its use there can either be a direct draft to the collar and stove-pipe, or the products of combustion can be divided, so as to take a circuitous course, and thus heat any pot or other vessel placed over or in the end holes. A permanent partition may be used in place of the damper kettles being placed over the back holes in the stove without coming in contact with the front lar on the stove, which admits of large pots or 7 side of the attachment, as they would do if i said front side were straight. The walls of the base-plate being made flaring admits of said plate and walls being made in one piece, whereby not only is the first cost of fitting less, but the base is made so strong thereby, the walls forming strengthening-ribs, that no support other than the bolts that fasten the attachment to the stove is needed. 7

What we claim as new is- 1. In a stove attachment designed to be se cured to the top back portion of a stove, a base-plate, A, provided with flaring walls a, and an opening for a pipe-collar, in combination with the top plate, E, provided with suitable boiler-holes and a pipe-collar, substantially as described.

2. The combination, with the stove attach ment A E, designed to be secured to the top back portion of astove, of the rod 0 and damper D, constructed to lie flat on the base-plate collar, of the top plate, E, having a raised flange, and provided with suitable boiler-h oles and a pipe-collar, substantially as described.

4. An attachment for stoves, provided with an opening for the'pipe-collar of ,thestove, a collar for the stove-pipe, and an opening for a boiler immediately over the opening for the pipe-collar of the stove, substantially as described.

5. In a stove attachment designed to be so stove-pipe, and a division-plate between the two, constructed to compel the heated pro- I 5 ducts of combustion to pass around each end a of said division, substantially as and for the purpose specified.

Intestimonywhereof we affix our signatures in presence of two witnesses.
